Tomorrow (3rd December) pets will be available as downloadable Avatar 'items' from the Xbox Live Marketplace, each for 240 Microsoft Points. I don't know about you, but I thought releasing clothes and items which we had to actually pay for was a bit over the top, but this is just silly.

We’ve just announced that Pets are coming to the Xbox LIVE Avatar Marketplace. Tomorrow, the first shipment arrives and you’ll be able to choose from the following Pets at 240 points each:



Large Dog, Pug Dog, Dog in Bag, Cat, Siamese Cat, Long Haired Cat, Goldfish, Guinea Pig, Monkey, Bird, Snake and yes….a Pony.
